Stylish Easton colonial captivates with New England charm
Three private acres, vibrant landscaping, mature trees and the quintessential New England charm of stone walls encompass this stylishly appointed five- bedroom colonial conveniently located in the Aspetuck area of Easton.
“The home has been lovingly maintained and each room has been meticulously updated to stay in touch with today’s trends,” owner/ agent Jennifer Terra Halberg said. The home exudes a welcoming atmosphere brimming with quality, character and flair. Beautiful hardwood floors span throughout the open floor plan, along with an abundance of 12over- 12- paned windows that bathe the home with light.
Comfortable, yet inviting, the formal living room features a handsome fireplace and French doors that open to a gorgeous sunroom with tile floor and walls of windows and sliders that open to the deck and bring the beauty of the outdoors right in. The expansive deck is ideal for outdoor entertaining and relaxation as it overlooks the verdant landscaping and picturesque setting, accented with stone walkways and a splitrail fence.
An ambience of casual elegance distinguishes the dining room. The heart of the home lies in the stunning kitchen and family room highlighted by wide- board flooring. The kitchen leaves nothing to be desired among a breakfast bar, dining area, tile backsplash, granite counters, Dacor range, double ovens and pantry, as well as a fireplace and built- ins. From the family room, a back staircase offers convenient access to the upper level. A cozy den is bright and cheerful and could also function as an office or study.
“Even the main level laundry and mudroom are creatively finished,” Halberg points out. “Shelves and cabinets provide function and purpose in the laundry area, while cubbies and a built- in seating area create the perfect drop- zone in the mudroom.”
There is ample space for family
